Captivate Podcast

As has become tradition at Captivate, we kicked the year off with a Praise Party! We want to jump into 2026 the best way we know how, by honoring and praising our God together. We also talked about the spiritual discipline of worship together as a church. We believe that spiritual disciplines such as worship hold the key to real life transformation. It is our prayer that we as one church family fe...

This Sunday we concluded our series, “Misfit Toys”. This week we remembered the moment Jesus stepped out of heaven and made his debut in a messy manger, the moment Jesus began loving the unlikely. From Bethlehem to San Diego and beyond, that was and is still His mission – to seek and to save the lost. We remembered a Savior who isn’t afraid to step into our messy situations and love those who migh...

Ever felt like the spotted elephant, the train with square wheels, or the cowboy riding an ostrich—like you just don’t quite fit, even at church? This Sunday we’re opening to the part most of us secretly skip: Matthew’s long, boring genealogy of Jesus. But here’s the thing, when you actually read the names, you discover the family tree of the King of Kings is gloriously, scandalously stuffed with...

This week we kicked off our new Christmas series, Misfit Toys! In this series, we see that Christmas and misfits go hand-in-hand (Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, Buddy the elf, and so on), but they also play a huge part in the Bible story, and specifically the Christmas narrative. Over the next few weeks, we will be taking a look at some of these misfit characters; taking a look at who they were,...

What's the deal with anger? You've probably heard it described as a secondary emotion; something that masks the primary issues in our life. You might not know that most psychologists are actually split on that idea. Many describe anger as being primary to our humanity; something that in many cases is unavoidable. And the Bible actually paints a similar picture of anger being complex. Scripture doe...

Lust can become a very powerful force in our lives. It has the ability to produce an appetite in us that is often uncontrolled. It tries to, even for a moment, hijack our mind, body, and behavior to drive us to do things we never thought we would do.  Because of this, the apostle Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 6 to respond to lust in a very unique way: “FLEE!” Do not just pray about it, think abou...

In a world that whispers "Greed is good" through every ad, click, and swipe—where Black Friday frenzies and "Super Size Me" define our appetites—Jesus issues a urgent warning in Luke 12:13-15: "Take heed and beware of greed, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses." This Sunday, we continued our series "Curing the Seven Deadly Sins" as we dove deeper into how we...

This Sunday we celebrated Commitment Sunday, a powerful moment in our Multiply journey as we came together to trust God with our future, filled out “Multiply” cards, gave, and made new and fresh commitments to God.  All throughout scripture it is evident that being committed to God and what he calls us to do is very important to him. But we live in a very non committing culture, have you noticed?...

This Sunday at Captivate we took a bold step forward in faith toward the Multiply Project God has called us to. This wasn’t just another service but a family conversation, and you’re the ones driving it. For weeks, you’ve been flooding us with your real, raw, submitted questions about what it looks like to trust God with a vision this big. And this week we brought a panel of pastors to the stage t...

This week we talked about Greed… Just a fun, little, easy topic right? The reality is, exposing Greed can be jolting to our flesh because it has become such a part of the fabric of our culture. Even in a nation with a strong Christian heritage, sins like Greed have not only become normal, they’re celebrated… Until you open God’s Word. Jesus in the Gospels warns us about, not just money itself, but...

Throughout this series, we will be looking at the sins that derail us in our walks with God, but also cures that deliver us. And part of what we learned so far, is that real heart and life change begins with an awareness of the places in our life where we are the most susceptible to sin. And it’s easy to see why: It’s because you can’t fix what you don’t know is wrong. This week we dove into the s...

In a world that says “comfort is king” and a culture that is constantly bombarding us with ways to make life more luxurious, how do we keep from becoming lethargic, pleasure seeking, easy living Christians? As we continue our series on “Curing the 7 Deadly Sins,” this weekend we are talking all about the sin of Sloth. Christ calls us to serve. But if we’re not careful we will slide down the slippe...

This week we continued in our series, “Curing the Seven Deadly Sins”, and we dove into one of sin’s sneakiest assassins—Envy. It’s the sin that turns brothers into rivals, friends into foes, and hearts into prisons. Unlike the other deadly sins, envy never feels good, it only eats you alive. But here’s the hope: the same God who confronted Cain tenderly also comes to us with grace, offering freedo...

This Sunday, we kicked off a new series called Curing the 7 Deadly Sins. Over the next ten weeks we’ll walk through struggles that have been tripping people up for centuries—Pride, Lust, Greed, Envy, Sloth, Gluttony, Wrath. More importantly we will discover the freedom Jesus offers in their place! This week we started the conversation with Pride! Pride so often sits at the root of the others, whis...
